Slow Cooker Vintage Ham and Potato Dinner is stick to your ribs good! Smoky ham, potatoes and green beans in a cheesy sauce, what could be better?
Hi all! Welcome to another edition of Slow Cooker Vintage Recipe of the month. I found this recipe in my Amish-Country Cookbook. The version in the cookbook for this recipe wasn’t a crockpot recipe, but I easily converted it to the slow cooker. I love looking through my old cookbooks and finding recipes that can be altered a bit to be made in the slow cooker. This one does great. There is plenty of cheesy sauce to keep everything moist. The six hours of cooking time melds all the flavors together, you can taste the smoky ham in the sauce. Also, the potatoes get fork-tender, and the ham even gets tender too.
Have a great week. I hope you give this recipe a try, it’s a keeper!

This was great. All in one pot.
We made this for Easter dinner. Up to the time we added the cheese it tasted great. But – after we added the cheese it turned salty. All we could taste was the salt from the cheese. We were so disappointed after waiting all that time and we were not able to enjoy it. Too bad.
This was excellent added some garlic bread.
